Trump Zone Resident Lindsey Graham Backstabs longtime friend Joe Biden

Former Vice President Joe Biden has found out that the friends he thought he had in the Republican Party (at least the ones still in office) are fair-weather ones.

Exhibit A is South Carolina Senator and Trump Zone Resident Lindsey Graham.

Mr. Graham, the head of the Senate Judiciary Committee has decided, after getting pressure from the Trumpist Fascist Right to launch an investigation into the already debunked conspiracy theories involving Hunter and Joe Biden and Burisma.

Graham’s head is so far up Donald Trump’s tuchus that he has apparently forgotten that he once said that “if you can’t admire Joe Biden, you’ve got a problem ….he is as good a man as God has ever created…”

The South Carolina Trump sycophant has justified this move, saying that while:

“I like Joe Biden, I like him a lot, I think he’s a fine man. I’m not saying Joe did anything wrong but I want to see the transcripts. But if there’s nothing there I’ll be the first one to say there’s nothing there. But we’re not going to live in a country where only one party gets investigated.”

So in Mr. Graham’s mind, this is all about tit for tat and an eye for an eye. How juvenile an attitude for a person that has been a United States Senator since 2003.

Maybe Democrats in the House should return the favor and hold hearings on how Jared and Ivanka are able to shape policy without obtaining security clearances through the normal process or how Don Jr. is getting favors from the Republican Party on the publication of his recent book.

Former Vice President Biden to his credit, publicly chastized Graham on an interview with Don Lemon on CNN commenting that:

“Lindsey is about to go down in a way that I think he’s going to regret his whole life…”I say, Lindsey, I just — I’m just embarrassed by what you’re doing, for you. I mean, my Lord…”They have him under their thumb right now. They know he knows that if he comes out against Trump, he’s got a real tough road for reelection, number one…”I am disappointed, and quite frankly I’m angered, by the fact — he knows me; he knows my son; he knows there’s nothing to this. Trump is now essentially holding power over him that even the Ukrainians wouldn’t yield to. The Ukrainians would not yield to, quote, ‘investigate Biden’ — there’s nothing to investigate about Biden or his son.”

Good for Joe Biden to defend himself against cowards like Graham and Trump.

Shame on Lindsey Graham for selling his soul and selling out his friend to keep his Senate seat.

Shame on the people inhabiting the Republican Party, the political entity that brought the American People Watergate, Iran Contra, the Missiles of Mass Destruction ruse, the Ukraine Scandal, and the bogus investigations into Whitewater, Benghazi and now Burisma.

Shame on the American People who do not see this move to investigate Joe Biden for the sham it is.
